I'm hoping to finish unconquered soon. Work has been really time consuming.

Hi, Gustavo. I'm working on it! I scanned most of a book last night and hope
to finish it tonight. Take care.

gentlepeople,
i have no books to approve! while it's cool to think: "great! the
Bookshare.org book approval queue is [practically] empty.now it's
major-slacking-off-time for me".unfortunately, that just means i'd have more
time to do other stuff on my to-do list.
approving books to go live on the website is without a doubt the coolest
part of my daily routine. if i have no books, then i have to move down the list
of daily tasks which aren't nearly as fun: improve my fussball game, or listen
to Jim complain about glaring holes in the movie adaptation of The Lord of the
Rings, or watch Peter via his webcam as he practices his interpretive dance
moves. none of these prospects are as fun as approving more books and watching
the live books number increase daily. we're at 22,652 as of the time i write
this email.
Bookshare.org cannot hit the 25,000 live books mark, which you all think is
do-able (and i do as well) by the end of the year without your continuous and
always appreciated submission and validation efforts.
please, give me something fun to do. do some quality validation, otherwise
i'll have to learn to speak Klingon, get that correspondence-school AA degree
in gun-repair or schedule a dental-cleaning appointment.
many thanks,
gustavo
